About

Magali Duzant is a NY-based interdisciplinary artist. Her work combines the poetics of perception alongside in-depth research practices to examine the subjectivity of seeing and the roles of technology and translation as mediators of lived experience.

She has created a number of public commissions for BRIC and Memorial Sloan Kettering amongst others. Her book, Light Blue Desire : A Manual to the Color Blue was published in 2018 by Conveyor Editions following the 2015 publication of, I Looked & Looked, a collection of 20 views of the moon on the night of Hurricane Sandy, inspired by the synchronicity of a romantic letter exchange between Stieglitz and O’Keeffe.
